Not every French person hates Greece though. Tax-loving French president Francois Hollande has stood up for the country in an televised interview, AFP reports:

"It's true that there are very rich Greeks who evade taxes and that must not be accepted," Hollande said. "But I don't think that this is the best way to address the Greeks -- 'you know, you have to look at your situation compared to Africans whose lives are harder than yours'."
